DAMN... ANYONE CAN HELP?:(

[iNHALE.xHALE.]

maybe your bongs not sealed correctly and its not creating the vacuum needed to suck up all the smoke

[mfqr]

Do you know how to use a gravity bong? You slowly lift it up out of the water to create suction. The suction will draw the smoke into the chamber. If you didn't do that, then that's your problem. Otherwise, it could be that it's not air-tight (aka, you sealed it badly).

I am not exactly sure how you could be having problems, though. Me and a friend made a gravity bong using an apple as a bowl a couple years ago, and it worked perfectly, and even gave the smoke an apple taste.

As for the waterfall bong, I'm pretty sure you're being sarcastic, Coelho :-). If you aren't, then you probably made the hole at the bottom too big, and thus there wasn't enough suction to draw the smoke in.

I was not... :( it was my 1st time trying an waterfall, so i hadnt much experience with that...
Dont know about the hole, though. Maybe youre right, and i will make a smaller hole next time...

SO IF U MAKE THA HOLE WHERE THE SOCKET IS TO BIG SMOKE WONT GET SUCKED IN? WOW I WAS THINKING IT WAS GIVING OFF SMOKE BECAUSE OF THE CHEAP LIGHTERS I BE USING.

I don't understand how people can fail at something like this...

There are instructions and videos all over the net...

smoke wont get drawn in if the hole is TOO SMALL, TOO BIG and the weed will fall in

[OLDE ENGLISH '800]

make sure its tight around the bowl or the air will just escape out of it.thats stoner 101

[imitator]

Its all about the sealing.

If there isnt proper sealing of the bong, then it wont have the suction to draw in the smoke.

And if the hole is too big on a waterfall bong, then you will get some mean harsh ass smoke from that guy, but I have never seen them not work with a big hole.
